Elimination of the 10% Stoppage on Stock Transactions
The right that appears in the Income Tax Law provisional article no:67 has been exercised again by the Council of Ministers in accordance with the resolution dated 27.10.2008 and numbered 2008/14272.

As of November 14, 2008, the stoppage rate applied to gains secured on stocks by full taxpayer natural and legal entities has been reduced from 10% to 0%. However, as this reduction will not apply to gains secured on the shares of investment trusts traded on the ISE and the mutual fund participation certificates, these gains will continue to be subject to a 10% stoppage.
The aforesaid reduction will only be in effect for gains secured on the trading of stocks that are subject to stoppage in accordance with the Income Tax Law provisional article no:67. This reduction will not include gains secured on government bonds, t-bills, futures and options contracts and mutual fund participation certificates. No changes have been made in regards to the taxation of these products and they will continue to be subject to a 10% stoppage in general.
